Sang Ning awakened. She found herself on a barren planet with only a knife as her equipment and supplies.
To survive and claim the高额奖金and habitable planet, primitive species Sang Ning...
The path down the mountain wasn't steep, and many parts were quite flat, but it was still a mountain after all.
Furthermore, Sang Ning came down too quickly.
Everyone watched in wide-angle view as her feet darted across the flat and sharp rocks, a visual spectacle that was truly a heart-pounding challenge.
Amidst this uncontrollable anxiety, Sang Ning reached the bottom of the mountain.
She stood on a large rock, watching the waves crashing against the shore, pondering where to go down, when a white figure caught her eye in the sea not far away.
She thought she was seeing things, but when she looked closer, another head appeared.
Soon, the head moved, and then a person stood up from the seawater.
The man was holding a large fish whose tail was thrashing about. Even from a distance, you could see how big the fish was; it would only get bigger up close. It looked to be about ten kilograms.
I just don't know what kind of fish it is.
She stared at that person for so long that he noticed something was wrong and looked over.
For a moment when their eyes met, Sang Ning's mind went blank, but she quickly returned to normal.
She watched as the man held the fish in one hand and waved to her with the other. After a brief moment of thought, she decisively jumped off the rock and waded through the seawater toward the man.
"So, is contestant number 238 going to both sides with another contestant?"
"Judging from the direction she was walking, yes, but there's something I don't understand. Another contestant wasn't standing very close to where she was just now, so how did she spot that contestant?"
"It's probably just like her knowing that there's a sea behind the mountain—both are unsolved mysteries."
At this moment, the staff in the live broadcast hall of the Wilderness Survival headquarters, such as Manager Luo, were also discussing this issue.
"Old Luo, are you sure the contestant you're in charge of is a primitive human?"
A man with a thick beard put his hand on Luo Ningsheng's shoulder and asked with a smile.
"Sure."
Luo Ningsheng said seriously, "The information is reviewed by the review team. A contestant from a poor planet has no right to have the review team help him falsify his information."
The implication is that there is really no need to doubt the authenticity of Sang Ning's information.
The people in charge understood immediately, but their doubts deepened.
"So, how exactly did she do it?"
Luo Ningsheng couldn't answer this question. After thinking for a moment, he said rather irresponsibly, "Maybe, perhaps it's because she comes from E27."
"What do you mean? Explain yourself clearly."
The cryptic words left the leaders completely bewildered. Luo Ningsheng didn't keep them in suspense and shared his assessment: "Even if you don't know the specifics of planet E72, you've heard about its poverty, backwardness, and danger."
"Year after year, there are only one or two days without sandstorms. In fact, the entire time is covered by sandstorms. While there is a severe shortage of various survival supplies, we also have to face attacks from sandworms. People without some skills cannot survive."
At this point, he sighed, "Really, through Sang Ning, I've come to realize that people of an elite race who have undergone genetic optimization are not necessarily truly elites."
"The only difference between us and Sang Ning is that we started from a higher point than her, but in other aspects we may not be able to compare with her."
"That's going too far."
Another person in charge retorted with displeasure, "You're comparing us elite races to primitive races. Are you overestimating your competitors or underestimating us?"
"I had the same thought as you before."
Genetically optimized elites naturally discriminate against and look down on primitive races, and he was no exception. However, Sang Ning's performance in the past two days gave him the idea of looking at races and things from a different perspective.
Then, he put himself in Sang Ning's shoes, experiencing his upbringing and living environment, and was horrified to discover that if he were a primitive human and born on a planet like E72, he could not have achieved what Sang Ning had.
“If our positions were reversed with Sang Ning’s, she could live a good life, but we might not.”
Everyone was speechless.
Luo Yonghao is beyond saving.
Not only do they think highly of a primitive human race, they also belittle themselves and them.
In their opinion, this guy's brain must have been hit by a meteorite or space debris.
The conversation ended unhappily, and the responsible parties, deeply aware of Luo Ningsheng's illness, decided to distance themselves from him.
Luo Ningsheng was oblivious to this, his eyes glued to the live stream viewers and Sang Ning's situation.
She thoughtfully stepped in to mediate conflicts when viewers were arguing and got angry, and also provided considerate answers to viewers' questions.
Most of the conversations in the live stream revolved around Sang Ning, with only a small number of viewers mentioning other players while still discussing Sang Ning.
Whether it's intelligent life or objects, they all fear comparison.
The difference is not noticeable without comparison, but once compared, the difference becomes apparent.
While Sang Ning had a safe place to stay and spent the night comfortably warmed by the fire, hundreds and thousands of other contestants had nowhere to stay and had to find a spot to crouch at night while remaining vigilant.
Each contestant only has one survival resource, and with no supplies available, hiding oneself in the extremely dangerous darkness is the safest course of action.
It's impossible for him to sleep. Wild animals have a keen sense of smell, and if he were asleep, he would most likely be eaten by wild animals.
Therefore, all we can do is remain vigilant and persevere.
Once dawn breaks and the sun comes out, it will be safe, and you can take a proper rest.
Therefore, while Sang Ning was heading back and forth with her harvest and another contestant, hundreds of contestants were already fast asleep under the sun.
An Yan and the others were also among those who were asleep.
Only Mo Yicheng seemed completely unaffected, sitting to the side in a daze without showing any signs of fatigue, while also protecting An Yan and the others.
As Sang Ning walked along the beach, she suddenly stopped and squatted down.
Mu Tao, who was running towards her carrying a large fish that had given up on struggling and chosen to lie flat, raised an eyebrow at this, and then continued running towards her.
The audience was also puzzled, and when they saw Sang Ning start digging in the sand, they were almost dumbfounded.
"Holy crap, why are there eggs in the sand? These are eggs, eggs, eggs, right?!"
"It looks like an egg, but I don't know what kind of creature's egg it is; I've never seen one like it before."
“I know what kind of egg it is; it’s a rainbow bird’s egg.”
"That kind of colorful bird that's so beautiful and charming when it's not raining, but becomes a drenched mess and its looks plummet when it rains?"
"Yes, you can check the information if you don't believe me."
"They're back from the investigation, so the Rainbow Bird's eggs are edible? Number 238 picked up this egg to eat it too?"
"Most likely."
It's highly likely that it can be removed; Sang Ning picked up this egg primarily to eat it.
